Erm, the Gnumeric files are quite personal, but you can reproduce the problem by
typing capital letters anywhere in a plain new gnumeric sheet, the issue is not
file-related.

As for the font file, when I say "converted" I really meant "imported from
Windows by Mandrake Control Center". 

However, I get the following, which shows the fonts were really converted from
TTF to PFB:
# lsof -P | grep gnumeric | grep verdana
gnumeric  3024 antoine  mem    REG       3,11    61291    619171
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/drakfont/Type1/verdana.pfb

So I'm gonna upload the "verdana.pfb" file, which you can try over a spreadsheet
cell containing capital letters (try "FOOBAR").


------
On a side note : since I've retried to import Windows font from 9.1's Control
Center, Phoenix (a Mozilla sub-project) does not detect Windows fonts anymore
(Verdana shows as Arial). Is 9.1 fontconfig-only, so that programs not using
fontconfig are now confused ?

description: 
After having upgraded Gnumeric (actually after upgrading from Mandrake 9.0 to
9.1), some files I had created with the previous Gnumeric don't display well
anymore. The fonts I used in those files (these are fonts which I'd transferred
from TTF files) look completely broken : character mappings seem to be corrupted
(for example 'V' displays as '6', other characters display as empty squares). In
fact, all fonts I had converted from Windows fonts look broken in the new
Gnumeric : only Mandrake native fonts (like Luxi Sans) are OK.

The same files and the same fonts look OK in OpenOffice Calc (and the fonts are
OK in other programs too), thus it does not seem to be a system-wide problem.

I'm uploading a screenshot. You can see a field whose content is correctly
displayed in the edit box, but broken in the WYSIWYG pane.
